GREEN INSULATION consists of milled (cellulose) fibre made from 80% recycled newsprint in a low energy process making it an extremely eco friendly product. Developed to the highest specifications, GREEN INSULATION offers a hard to beat combination of R-Values with exceptional thermal performance and great coverage – pneumatically pumped into a ceiling or wall cavity by professionals, GREEN INSULATION presents a sustainable, low embedded energy and this prevention of greenhouse gases at both the consumer and producer end of the product’s lifecycle is known as a “double green” effect. It is an acclaimed energy efficient solution for the home, office or industrial building.

GREEN INSULATION is tested and field proven insulation product. Research on cellulose insulation has shown that air leakage through the walls and ceilings is reduced because cellulose has a better and natural ability to “tighten” the building by filling in small, hard-to-reach cavities and irregular surfaces. GREEN INSULATION is machine blown and it offers greater performance value than other fibrous insulations. Its higher density and perfect fit dramatically reduce air leakage and air convection.

Cellulose fibre is a very effective soundproofing material. GREEN INSULATION is four times as dense as glass fibre and therefore has excellent acoustic values. Noise pollution from traffic and airplanes will be significantly reduced in the home once GREEN INSULATION is installed. The layer of roof insulation will also prevent sound travelling between rooms through the roof space.

Extensive flame-retardant and smouldering tests performed by the S.A.B.S., verifies that GREEN INSULATION cannot burn or smoulder and will not promote fire spreading, even when exposed to an extremely hot naked flame. GREEN INSULATION does not emit any poisonous toxins or gases when threatened by fire. Our cellulose fibre insulation is impregnated with the highest quality flame-retardants, which are environment friendly and found in any household. GREEN INSULATION is treated with fire retardant additives and withstands the heat of a blow lamp without melting or emitting noxious fumes. Where our building insulation has been present in fires it has actually afforded protection against spread and reduced damage. Fire tested in terms of SANS 428 and classified B/B1/2.

GREEN INSULATION is 100% environment friendly and is unattractive to rodents and insects. Our cellulose fibre insulation does not contain any poisonous repellents. Undesirables simply avoid Green Insulation because it attaches itself to their fur and paws. Our insulation product has proved its long-term resistance to both wet and dry rot.

GREEN INSULATION is supplied in bags made from mainly recycled plastic, thus ensuring that it reaches your home in a totally dry state.

GREEN INSULATION promotes sustainable building, environment friendly awareness, and produces energy efficient homes. Produced from recycled newsprint and impregnated with world-class environment-friendly additives, a truly green insulation. It is fibre glass-free and contains no asbestos. With GREEN INSULATION, you will not feel an irritable itch on your skin. GREEN INSULATION is not detrimental to the respiratory system.

Installation is both quick and clean, with no waste (or mess) to be cleaned up.

Why install expensive, unhealthy and electricity consuming air conditioners, which require regular maintenance and servicing when S.A.B.S. approved GREEN INSULATION is a fraction of the cost. GREEN INSULATION remains constant all year round and carries a lifetime guarantee of the product. GREEN INSULATION can never become ineffective or deteriorate and will promote significant electricity savings. The recovery period from the cost of GREEN INSULATION is approximately 3 years in energy consumption.

Global warming is imminent. The hot African sun shines on the roof of your home or office causing the attic area inside your roof to become like an oven, often reaching temperatures of up to 60°C. This heat is transferred through the ceiling into your home and it is this fact that makes your living space unbearably hot, causing the occupants headaches, diminished concentration, irritation and discomfort. GREEN INSULATION is an absolute necessity and will reduce the downward heat flow by up to 88%.

GREEN INSULATION has a natural ability to become an integral part of the wall, floor or ceiling by filling all the gaps and irregular spaces and thereby producing a significant improvement in noise suppression. Due to the porosity of its interwoven fibres, cellulose insulation is able to absorb low and high frequency ranges within an enclosed wall or ceiling cavity. Cellulose fibre has a NRC-Noise Reduction Co-efficient of 0.90 (90% of sound energy absorbed).

In summation:• S.A.B.S. approved and exceeds thermal performance of other generic brands in its class• Has achieved the best "R" values and thermal conductivity ratings• Carries a lifetime guarantee of the product where installed, it can never deteriorate or become ineffective• 100% coverage of the ceiling area leaving no blind or hot spots• Contains no glass fibre, asbestos or plastic, thus is non-toxic• Unattractive to insects and rodents – pest retardant• 100% fire resistant, does not burn and does not promote the spread of flame• Non-allergenic• 100% environment friendly• A noise reducing product – up to 90% of sound energy is absorbed• Reduces upward heat loss by up to 91% and reduces downward heat flow by up to 88% after installation
